I love the graphics on this one, you probably spent a lot of time making the UI interactive!
I did have a bit of trouble figuring out what I needed to do, and even after reading the itch.io page, your comment, and the in-game help menu, the lack of an obvious goal still made trying to make progress a bit jarring and even overwhelming. Maybe the player should be eased into the gameplay a bit more.
I feel like this game has a lot of potential however! I love games that implement, essentially, programming languages as their core game mechanic. Imagine being able to make drones completely automatic and having them run around all willy-nilly ahhh that'd be so cool.
Good job on getting the game feeling this polished!
Unfortunately I didn't have enough time to implement anything resembling a core loop: all you can do at the moment is feed fuel into the large green drone and collect upgrades (hence the tech demo signifier). Glad you enjoyed it, though!
Sorry I don't understand what to do, I can't do anything, even with the quick help. Can you help me ?
I have nothing in the prog pannel.
Right click to get a selection menu, and left click drag between connectors to connect two blocks. When you pick up upgrades you'll gain new blocks if you haven't already acquired them.
Oh okay ! The right click was what I missed ! That's nice concept I realy like it ! It work well even if finding prog is difficult and the pause is needed very often. Great prototype !
Glad you enjoyed it! The right click was a later control change so I guess it didn't make it to the quick help.
